    Hi,

    how can I edit key frame values of animation clips, while the same animation, other animations and a cinemachine brain are playing in the timeline in preview mode? I can delete and move key frames in the animation window, but when I move or rotate the object in den scene editor, I can't add a new key frame. I also can't record the changes. The only possibility to change an objects transform, is to change every value manually in the animation window.

    Do I have a wrong workflow? I want to edit an animation clip while other timeline animations play at the same time.

    If the timeline editor is playing, it 'owns' the preview. Animation window recording is disabled, unless it is linked to timeline - i.e. the editing was initiated by double clicking a clip or selecting 'Edit in AnimationWindow' in the Timeline Editor.
